Frog came to Toad’s house. He looked in the window.

“Good,” said Frog. “Toad is out. He will never know who raked his leaves.”

“I am sorry,” gasped Frog, “but I could not catch your list.”

“Blah,” said Toad.

“Frog, why do you keep looking out the window?” asked Toad.

“Because I am waiting for the mail,” said Frog.

“But there will not be any,” said Toad.

“Oh yes there will,” said Frog, “because I have sent you a letter.”

There was Frog.

Frog was standing near Toad's bed. “Wake up, Toad,” he said.

“Will power is trying hard not to do something you really want to do,” said Frog.

“You mean like trying hard not to eat all these cookies?” asked Toad.

“Right,” said Frog.

Toad looks frantically around the dark theater, calling for Frog. Frog is nowhere to be found. From "The Dream" In *Frog and Toad Together*

“Frog,” said Toad, “Where are you?” There was still no answer.

“Frog, what have I done?” cried Toad.

“I will be too tired. I am going back to bed.”

Toad went back into the house.

“Turtle,” said Toad, “carry me to the island. Frog is there. He wants to be alone.”
